Vegan Vanilla Mint Chocolate Eggs
It has been lovely here lately. I love it when it is 45 degrees in the morning, and I can run in shorts in the fresh air and be comfortable, then in the afternoon when I want to relax it is 60 degrees. The birds are chirping like crazy, and all of the ducks and […]
Roasted Squash Grain Free “Rice” Pilaf
I used to make celeriac rice all the time a year ago, and I realized this week that I haven’t made it in a long time. I saw some celeriac at the store, and I went for it, knowing I could whip up some delicious rice dish that I was now craving. I had some […]
Raw Green Tea Ice Cream with Strawberry Swirl
When I was enjoying a cup of warm matcha recently, I admired the lovely green color in my mug and I thought, how lovely would it be to make a matcha ice cream with a strawberry swirl? The green contrasting the red, and the earthy matcha paired with the sweet berries. I had to make […]
Red Lentil, Yam and Mushroom Stew
Last Sunday was a full but wonderful day for me! I woke up, had a wonderful workout, made a delicious cake, and then decided to go downtown with Eric to see the Macy’s Art in Bloom Flower Show and walk the skyways. We saw some beautiful flowers, and it was a nice taste of spring, since it […]
Vegan Flourless Chocolate Cake
I have always wanted to make a flourless chocolate cake and finally last weekend I did. It all started when someone asked me if I had a flourless chocolate cake recipe because they wanted to make one for Easter. I didn’t unfortunately, and I decided that I needed to make one! Surprising in all of […]
Raw Maple Cinnamon Pumpkin Seed Walnut Butter
I am a big fan of making your own nut butter at home. Not only is it usually more cost effective, but you can create new blends of nuts that you would not find in a store. Sometimes I make flavors with dessert in mind like Raw Pecan Brownie Batter Butter or Raw Sugar Cookie […]
Raw Green Tea Almond Raspberry Granola
My Mom drinks green tea every day, and she loves my granola for breakfast. So I thought I would create a recipe for her that combined two of the things she loves. Plus, I am a fan of granola myself and I can not resist anything with matcha in it lately. It has found its […]
Raw Vanilla Mint Chocolates
I have always wondered why mint is part of the St. Patrick’s Day tradition besides the fact that it is green and green is of course the color of St. Patrick’s Day. I mean, did they eat lots of mint stuff over in Ireland? I am not Irish so I do not know, but probably […]
Raw Marble Cake Batter Nut Butter
I am always experimenting with new flavors of nut butters. Sometimes I keep them simple and sometimes, I like to play it a little sweet and dessert like. This is because I think the right sweet nut butter is wonderful drizzled over some bananas for dessert, or over a smoothie bowl as an extra treat […]
Raw White Chocolate Coconut Rose Macaroons
Raw cacao butter is one of the most heavenly aromas you can ever experience. It is like close your eyes, relax and go to your happy place wonderful. I had just some last week, and I asked my Mom to smell it and afterwords she told me that I needed to make her some coconut […]
Raw Nut Goodie Bites
Nut goodies. The name brings back memories of biting into a maple cream and crunchy peanut goodness coated in smooth chocolate. A child’s dream dessert. I have to admit when I was little they ranked right up there with Reese’s PB cups if not higher. They are made right here in Minnesota, and I […]
